35. Of the Sama hymns, I am the Brhatsaman hymn and I am the Gāyatri among meters. Of months,
I am Margashirsha (November-December): and of seasons I am the season of flowers (spring).
dyūtaṃ chalayatām asmi tejas tejasvinām aham |
jayo’smi vyavasāyo’smi sattvaṃ sattvavatām aham || 36 ||
36. Of the fraudulent [activities], I am gambling. I am the brilliance of the brilliant, I am victory, I
am effort, I am the magnanimity of the magnanimous.
